Well people, I think I got this shit in the bag. its day 11, I'm getting my energy back and sleeping is coming easier. to everybody out there who is looking to get clean. IT IS POSSIBLE. And you have no idea what you have lost, Opiates numb EVERY PART OF YOU. I got 5 years of emotions in a massive flood at once. It actually does feel good to be sober! I CAN FEEL AGAIN! The fact that music sounds 1000x better is reason enough to quit! I think SO clearly now. Its a bit much to take in, as you start thinking about the entire time you were using and all that you did. you have to process it because you never did! The entire process is by no means a cake walk, but we did this to ourselves. For all that pleasure we felt, we have to give some pain.
But its not an impossible task, I was never more scared of anything in my life, but here I am at day 11. I even have suboxone, methadone, and poppy pods around the house. Havent touched that shit, It feels too good to be ME again. If your on heroin, methadone, suboxone, whatever your on. Taper that shit down, as low as you can go. I went from 100mgs of methadone down to 20mg in 4 months. then switched to 8mgs of suboxone, and over a 6 week period I tapered down to 2mg with little problem.
So if your reading this wondering if you can do it, you fucking can. You have to reach that mental point where living your life as a numbed soul is NOT acceptable anymore. You MUST reach the point where you will do ANYTHING. Mind over matter friends. I hope this thread helps somebody out there.
Peace to you and yours.

ya I got .3mg clonodine pills to help with the hot/cold, sweats, and restless legs. half a pill so .15mg was enough to take care of everything. half when you wake up, half when you gota bed. I would just try taking 1 and seeing how you feel. if you need it, take another half. IF you feel Light headed, you need to eat salt to increase your blood pressure. Glad to hear you got some of that stuff man, it made a huge difference for me! Hope your hanging in there! I'm rooting for ya!

ahhh shit man, you gota get to that point man. I cut myself off from EVERY SINGLE FRIEND I HAD. except inverted, because we had a plan to get sober together. Get laid after you been in WD for like 5 or 6 days. that will make you stay clean FOREVER.

I know I fucked up. I got to do better. I am hoping I get some good help tomorrow and even if not. I have these clondine to help me. Enough to get me through the WD's
You are definitely a source of inspiration for me to quit. Ive at least managed to cut my use from using everyday.

Ya try and get some benzos from that shrink, I lied to mine and said I have 3-4 bad panic attacks daily that were triggered by nothing and by me thinking of stressful stuff. I dont know if your going to an addiction specialist, but if its just a shrink, just lie and tell them you have never had a drug problem. Also helps if you say somebody in your family has anxiety and takes "klonopin or xanax" and that it works really well for them. Doctors like drugs that work for family members because it usualy means it will work well for you. YOU CAN DO IT MAN. I never thought I could do this shit, but I did. SO YOU CAN. I'm sending you some good positive energy! Fight tooth and nail dude!

Thanks for the words. I definitely NEED some benzos. I dont want to take them every day, but I do actually get panic attacks and have real bad social anxiety.
Ive been giving visterol but that shit sucks. Helps for sleeping a little bit
Regardless. I want to be able to say ive been a week clean at this time next week. And I hope you all give me shit and tell me to go tomato face if I fail. Failing isnt an option for me. Everything else is going soo fucking well right now and I cant fuck it up.

Did you have anxiety problems prior to opiate use? Because it really fucks with the part of your brain that causes anxiety, thats why we get so much anxiety when we come off it. But if you had prior anxiety issues you should definitely be given some Benzos for that. Lets see you have that week man! fuck the dope, You really will be high on life when you get sober. Its a trip I tell ya man, its like being reborn. alright man day 1, pound out that week. I feel fucking GREAT today. not bad at all!

Yep, Like I said. My house is literally full of opiates. I could get nodding if i WANTED to. Fuck that though, Its crazy how good life is sober. I never, ever would have believed life was this good while I was using. I'm done with that game and its 100% in my mind. Throw a loaded rig in front of me and ill turn that shit down. Mind over matter every time.
